Three people were arrested on felony charges for receiving stolen property on Jan. 19 at a checkpoint on Alabama Highway 77 at the intersection of Industrial Parkway in Rainbow City.

Johnathan Dawon Davis, 24, Attalla, Jeremy Mark McCurry, 29, Steele, and Mary Camp Corrothers, 31, Rainbow City allegedly received a .45 caliber Kimber pistol that was taken from an Etowah County Drug Enforcement Unit agent’s vehicle on Nov. 23. The pistol was issued to the agent by the DEU.

“The deputies and Rainbow City officer are to be highly commended for their discovery of this stolen weapon,” Sheriff Todd Entrekin said. “This is another great example of what can be accomplished when law enforcement agencies work together.”

The weapon was recovered at the checkpoint after McCurry was arrested for giving false identification to an officer and the officers saw Davis had outstanding warrants. Corrothers was taken into custody when the stolen weapon was found while officers were conducting an inventory of the vehicle before it was towed.

McCurry is being held in the Etowah County Detention Center. Davis and Corrothers were booked into the facility and later released on $2,500 bond each.
